Note 1 — Note to Chapter 60. The fables of Pilpay.
C. H. (Charles Henry) Tawney translation
This is also found in the Panchatantra and the Hitopadeśa. See Benfey’s Panchatantra, Vol. I, (Einleitung), p. 100. In fact the present chapter corresponds to the 2nd book of the Hitopadeśa, “The separation of friends,” Johnson’s Translation, p. 40, and to the 1st book of the Panchatantra. In śl. 15, I read, with Dr. Kern, śashpán.
